Ferrari has gone with a smaller turbo than most other teams.  It reduces turbo lag and produces very quick launches.  Lewis demonstrates at today's practice start, where he goes from P9 to P1 before turn 1.  Now, the obvious issue, nobody is going all out in a practice start.  But the Ferrari engines are definitely quicker off the start.

DTS drops today.   I’m still excited to watch even though I don’t binge through in 2 days like I used to.  

Bigger news is Monday is race week!    This time next week we will be through FP2 in Australia.

The Cadillac will be called MAC-26 which stands for Mario Andretti Cadillac 2026.

There is a rumor that on Sunday, Aston Martin will take the formation lap and retire. Lack of engine replacement parts from Honda being the reason.

They are both over a month away. But if the Iran situation is not solved by then, you would think Bahrain and Saudi Arabia would be cancelled.

This has to be internet rumor.  Larry would look like such a fool.  He would go scorched earth if that happens.
